No. 5 Arik Gilbert, TE, LSU

Gilbert made one of the flashiest plays of the weekend on a prayer of a touchdown throw by Myles Brennan. He finished the day with four catches for 37 yards. There were some struggles for Gilbert, particularly as a blocker, where he allowed three QB pressures in six pass blocking snaps, per PFF College.

No. 14 Eli Ricks, CB, LSU

Ricks played better than you’d think given that LSU gave up 623 passing yards to Mississippi State in Week 1. Finishing with four tackles and an interception, Ricks showed to be LSU’s most dynamic defensive back against a potent Bulldog offense. He allowed only two receptions on five targets, per PFF College, the lowest percentage of any Tiger defender.

No. 24 Kayshon Boutte, WR, LSU

Despite starting, Boutte ceded many of his snaps to Jaray Jenkins as LSU’s game with Mississippi State went on. Boutte finished with one catch for six yards, while Jenkins caught five passes for 85. Jenkins reeled in all five of his targets while Boutte brought in one of two throws that went his way.
